Became a Human Rights Advocate

Chapter 27

27 – Episode 6. Yes?

＜1＞

“Hmm….”

Morning, playground.

I was with Baeksoso today too. Now that I am not tired even after running the distance I was aiming for, I am learning how to fight Baeksoso in my spare time.

Lee Si-hyeok has no combat ability. So he should at least learn how to fend for himself.

“Why? Is your posture weird?”

“No. It’s not like that… “

Baek Suso looked at me with his words trailing off. Noticing where his gaze was heading, I awkwardly touched his hair.

“Hair, is it that bad?”

“No. Since I cut it, there’s no such thing as too much. Even so… Hmm….”

Yesterday, that is, Sunday, Baek So-so called me to the Cheonryong Pavilion an hour before work. Then he dragged me into a back alley, took out various barber tools, and skillfully cut my hair.

A hard two-block hairstyle with the sides and back of the hair cut short, leaving only a little bit of bangs.

Even before possessing Lee Si-hyeok, this was his hair that he often did. However, it was somehow awkward because my body was different.

In addition, Baek So-so, the person responsible for cutting the hair, keeps reacting in such a subtle way that it makes me more concerned.

“… So you said you were going to the beauty salon.”

“Senior. What kind of beauty salon is this without money?”

“I got my salary. And this Thursday is the day the living expenses come in.”

While saying that, I repeated the posture Baek So-so taught me.

“Ah, senior, put your right arm a little closer to your body.”

“Like this?”

“Yes, yes.”

What Baek So-so learns is none other than the basics of boxing.

I thought you would teach me at least Chinese martial arts, but this one is more realistic.

Then what about non-fuel? When I asked him about it, he said that Biyeon-ryu was good for practical combat, but he couldn’t tell me about it because it was a one-man tradition. What did it seem like

“Anyway, it’s good to cut down on unnecessary consumption.”

That’s right.

You should save money at least until the bazaar event after the midterm exam. There are a few items that you can’t buy unless you scrape them together like Jaringobi.

“If it gets longer next time, tell me. I will cut it.”

“Yes, thank you.”

“Of course you should be grateful! Seniors should consider meeting me as luck, right?”

I nodded obediently, and Baek Suso focused on warming up again. Then, as if thinking of something, Baek So-so wickedly raised the corner of his mouth and opened his mouth.

“By the way, senior, aren’t you doing ‘that’ these days?”

“What is that?”

“Why, you know that. Doing this ‘once’.”

“Ugh.”

My mentality was shaken after taking the unexpected blow.

“When I first heard that, I wanted something. What do you mean when you see that you quit so quickly? A new concept for the new semester? Or is it late middle school 2? Ah, in the case of seniors, is it a sophomore in high school?”

“… Please don’t mention that anymore because I was wrong.”

In the cartoons I saw before I possessed Lee Si-hyuk’s body, the character with such a way of speaking only left quite an impression on me.

I said it was kind of humorous, but looking back, it was a shriveled memory, so I kicked the blanket over it.

Baek So-so laughed as he watched me shudder in shame, then asked another question.

“By the way, how about the special department these days?”

“Um… How to say… It feels like floating.”

After the last battle, Joo Ji-young conveyed the policy of free action to the Singularity Division for a while.

Looking at the injuries of the students, they seem to be preparing something new by moving around.

Alex, Makina, and I attended the special department every day. Makina’s house is in the building where the singularity department is located, so it’s practically natural, and Alex, who rarely goes to school, has nothing to do, so she always stopped by.

I am present as much as possible to get information right away in case something happens.

Nicola is still in the hospital. The recovery is all over, but it was a serious injury, so they say they are checking the progress a bit more.

Chae Hee-rin and Suisei never visited the special department after that. Chae Hee-rin is not sincere in this part, so even so, Suisei was unexpected.

Have you suffered any kind of heartache during the fight with Paulo?

I sent a few messages on my cell phone, but I only read them and didn’t get a reply.

“Hey, something doesn’t look right.”

“That’s right.”

The rails are slightly off the rails from the story of Leoa that I already remember.

Right now, it’s not much different from the scenario I’m familiar with, but as time goes on, the gap caused by these misaligned rails will only get worse.

… I really don’t want to

There may be something commonly called deterrence.

In the end, the flow of the world flows according to the law of cause and effect, something that often appears in comics.

Well, if you think about it, you will only know after time passes.

I just do what I can every day.

“I’m leaving.”

“Eh already? I ask you to teach me at best.”

“I will be able to do it longer from tomorrow.”

Because one of the workdays ends today.

After parting with Baek So-so, I moved to the mall and swept the floor as usual. It’s a street that always looks clean every time I pass by, but when I start sweeping it, quite a lot of garbage collects.

“Oh, student. Did you cut your hair?”

She said the merchant lady, who always brings food, looked at my head.

“Yes, yesterday.”

“Shouldn’t have cut it earlier. I didn’t like it before because it was messy like a spongy hair, but when I cut it like that, the student’s shinsoo is very clear.”

“Ha ha ha….”

It is probably common to all elderly people to hate long hair and like short hair.

I smiled awkwardly and scratched my head.

“Ah, look at my mind. Student, do you still have time to go to school?”

“Isn’t it? I will have about 20 minutes to spare.”

“Then wait here for a minute.”

A woman who walks into a shopping mall in a hurry without listening to my answer.

Looking at that reaction, it seems that my efforts for about 30 days were not in vain.

“Oh, are you the student of that rumor?”

Not long after, the lady dragged a decent-looking middle-aged man. After bowing her head in greeting, she glanced at her aunt, demanding her explanation.

“This is the president of our shopping district prosperity association. After talking about the student a few times, she said she really wanted to meet me.”

“Yes, thank you as always. She’s taller than I was told, so she’s very handsome.”

“hahahaha… , thank you.”

The praises of the elders have a characteristic that makes people feel a little embarrassed.

“It’s nothing else, but I’m sorry that I couldn’t take care of anything when the students are working so hard for our shopping district.”

My aunt did take care of her full breakfast. Well, even if it’s me, I’m not blind enough to point it out in a situation like this.

“Take this.”

“This is… “

What the president of the shopping district gave me was a small bottle with no label on it.

… However, the color of the liquid inside is a bit strange.

Purple… ? No brown… ? Can i eat this?

“It is good for the body. Don’t worry, just keep drinking.”

“… All right.”

I accepted the unknown disease with determination.

Thirty days have passed, and the thing the shopping district chairman gave me.

Even in the original version, there was a mention of ‘the taste is strange’, so this must be the item that raises your guts by 2.

“Uh.. Ugh..”

… Fantastic. Fantastically tasteless. Could this taste even exist? I looked at the shopping district venue from the side of my eye, wondering if something was wrong, but he seemed to have no malice, just a friendly smile.

Ugh… Ugh… 100 Million…

“Haa….Ha… “

“Heh heh, the more I look at this student, the better it gets. I hope you drink it all at once. I didn’t have to.”

The president laughs loudly.

Does this really increase the guts stat?

…Should have gone up. If I hadn’t climbed it, I’d feel so sorry for myself for swallowing this all at once…!

“Oh, and students, you don’t have to come from tomorrow.”

“Yes?”

“Come on, take it.”

The chairman took something out of his pocket and handed it to me. That item is none other than a gift certificate from a shopping street.

“The members of the Prosperity Society, impressed by the students, said they would do the cleaning themselves. By the way, from what I hear, it seems that the student’s wallet situation is pretty tight, right?”

I nodded obediently. Now I can afford it a little bit, but it’s still time to save it.

“So, from now on, stop by the shopping district in the evening and grab something to eat in the morning. It’s nice to see that the students are diligent. You have to sleep well at that age. So study hard.”

“… Thank you.”

I bowed my head. Events in the shopping district were limited to one per character anyway, so I had no intention of coming out tomorrow.

Then I was thinking about how to make breakfast, but if they take care of it like this, there’s no reason to refuse.

“I just stop by the lady’s shop often. I’ll prepare something delicious for you.”

After work at the shopping mall, I took a shower at the dormitory as usual and went to school.

And after roughly finishing my morning studies, I straight away fall face down on my desk and fall asleep.

It’s lunch time when you wake up to get off for three hours.

While having a meal on the roof, I listened to what the newspaper club seniors were talking about.

Among the information this senior asked, there was quite a lot of useful information.

From noble mtl dot com

For example, the notorious Zetas family in the back alley collapsed overnight, and things like that.

After that, go back to the classroom and go back to sleep. When you wake up, it’s time for the funeral.

… Maybe something is wrong with my body somewhere.

I walked out of the classroom thinking that I should talk to Joo Ji-young next time.

But when I change my shoes and go out to the playground, the school gate is in a mess for some reason.

Why are people gathered like that? Well, that’s not something I should be concerned about.

Wandering around, walking around.

But as I approached the school gate, I saw a familiar face among the crowd.

Black straight hair extended to the waist, sparkling red eyes, and detailed features. Slim height with the same proportions as the model.

Kasuga is Suisei.

Looking closely, a long limousine was waiting outside the school gate.

Looking at the circumstances, that seems to be the vehicle Suisei was riding in.

I can’t believe this development…

“Ah, Mr. Sihyuk!”

Suisei looks at me and waves her hand gracefully. Feeling the eyes of the students standing around me focus on me, I sighed inwardly.

It’s been a while since the rating test ended, and the number of people asking about this and that has decreased, but starting tomorrow, I’ll be bothered again.

“You cut your hair. I almost didn’t know.”

“I cut it yesterday. But what’s going on here… ?”

“Can I go inside and talk about the details?”

I didn’t want to, but I nodded my head because the gazes around me were burdensome.

I can’t even guess what the hell you’re asking about.

Most of the events that occur in Legend of Academia take place from the teacher’s point of view.

In most cases, the communication between students that sometimes appears in the main story goes through the teacher’s point of view.

In this way, there is no information about exchanges between students outside the teacher’s perspective.

The limousine was quite spacious. The chair cushion is also sturdy, so it feels luxurious in many ways.

“Huh, this is my first time riding with a man like this.”

Suisei, who sat across from me, covered her mouth and laughed.

“… So why did you come here today?”
